Toybota

The Toybota was Clarkson's first attempt at an amphi-car. The name comes from Toyota. The Toybota was originally a Toyota Hilux which Top Gear earlier proved indestructible, when they placed it on the roof of a block of flats that was later demolished. The Hilux managed to drive away afterwards.

The Toybota was relatively simple. You had a normal car engine to get you around and then when you went into water you simply climbed into the back and turned on the taps with the massive Honda outboard engine mounted on the back of the pickup.

After rescuing Hammond from his sinking Dampervan, Jeremy managed to beat James on his Triumph Herald to the finish point but capsized when he sharply turned towards the jetty. Then, just to add to Clarkson's fustration, James reversed his Herald out and won.
